Do you dislike Allred because she is a professionally aggrieved lawyer with a wide audience while you are a mere habitually aggrieved lawyer confined to this message board? 1. How does your question have anything to do with my post? 2. Do you like Allred? I don't know anyone that does, and there's a whole host of reasons why. Well you had been ranting about Allred, I was just wondering if part of your disdain for her stemmed from jealousy. I mean, she's famous for getting offended, you have a much smaller audience here when your delicate sensibilities are offended, which seems to happen several times a day. And no, I have no fondness for Allred. |

I made one post about her. |

So much for the board coming together over our mutual loathing of Gloria Allred and Donald Trump.
BTW, I have changed my voting strategy. I plan on voting for the ticket that demonstrates the most caring and empathy for those affected by the hurricane over the next several days.
Monkey: meet wrench.
No, but seriously. Good luck and stay safe, everyone. I'm usually pretty skeptical about how severe these storms can get in the mid-Atlantic, particularly after Isabel, which had all of DC in a panic for nothing (though parts of MD did get hit pretty hard, granted).
However, I think I am a believer on this one. It looks like it could get pretty wicked nasty out there in a couple days.

How is that a "sex" joke? And it's not "pretty much the same" as the Dunham monologue. That's like saying the media's fascination with Mourdock's comment is "pretty much the same" as the level of fascination (or lack thereof) over Obama's bungling of Libya (including reports now that CIA "seal" teams were denied permission to invervene). |

I simply rest assured that probably about 99% of those who watch "Girls" are either not old enough or not registered to vote.

KC, stop giving out information about the Libya thing. The American people are not expected to know about this until after the election.

Chris Matthews has trademarked the term racism and all derivatives. Please prepare to receive a letter from Gloria Allred. |

If newspaper endorsements mattered, Ted Cruz would be in big trouble in the Texas Senate race. All of the state's major newspapers, save the Houston Chronicle, have endorsed his opponent. |

Tomorrow is the last day to enter the two contests. Still a lot of posters that like to throw it around in this thread that have not entered. It's as easy as copy-pasting and removing some text.
Both freeze tomorrow at midnight.

A Vote for a President Who Will Lead on Climate ChangeQUOTE:We need leadership from the White House – and over the past four years, President Barack Obama has taken major steps to reduce our carbon consumption, including setting higher fuel-efficiency standards for cars and trucks. His administration also has adopted tighter controls on mercury emissions, which will help to close the dirtiest coal power plants (an effort I have supported through my philanthropy), which are estimated to kill 13,000 Americans a year.
Mitt Romney, too, has a history of tackling climate change. As governor of Massachusetts, he signed on to a regional cap-and-trade plan designed to reduce carbon emissions 10 percent below 1990 levels. "The benefits (of that plan) will be long-lasting and enormous – benefits to our health, our economy, our quality of life, our very landscape. These are actions we can and must take now, if we are to have `no regrets' when we transfer our temporary stewardship of this Earth to the next generation," he wrote at the time.
He couldn't have been more right. But since then, he has reversed course, abandoning the very cap-and-trade program he once supported. This issue is too important. We need determined leadership at the national level to move the nation and the world forward.
I believe Mitt Romney is a good and decent man, and he would bring valuable business experience to the Oval Office. He understands that America was built on the promise of equal opportunity, not equal results. In the past he has also taken sensible positions on immigration, illegal guns, abortion rights and health care. But he has reversed course on all of them, and is even running against the health-care model he signed into law in Massachusetts.

Oh, good grief. I'm glad no one is conflating weather and climate anymore. Especially not for political purposes in the direct wake of a natural disaster. Because that would be just wrong! Like everyone said it was when Republicans made fun of Al Gore in the last cold winter in DC and during the snowstorms a couple years ago. Wait, I forgot. Snowstorms are indicative of climate change too. Every weather anomaly is....no matter how localized. Thanks for watching out for us, Mikey. Pass the salt while you're at it.  |
